M HKA gaat digitaal

Met M HKA Ensembles zetten we onze eerste échte stappen in het digitale landschap. Ons doel is met behulp van nieuwe media de kunstwerken nog beter te kaderen dan we tot nu toe hebben kunnen doen.

We geven momenteel prioriteit aan smartphones en tablets, m.a.w. de in-museum-ervaring. Maar we zijn evenzeer hard aan het werk aan een veelzijdige desktop-versie. Tot het zover is vind je hier deze tussenversie.

M HKA goes digital

Embracing the possibilities of new media, M HKA is making a particular effort to share its knowledge and give art the framework it deserves.

We are currently focusing on the experience in the museum with this application for smartphones and tablets. In the future this will also lead to a versatile desktop version, which is now still in its construction phase.

Spiral, 1983

Sculpture, 270 x 107 cm.

Collection: Collection M HKA, Antwerp (Inv. no. BK5127_M5).

Spiral consists of found objects that have been carefully arranged into the shape of a spiral. These everyday objects are arranged from big to small, which creates a sense of upward movement. The objects, which differ widely in terms of their appearance and the materials used, are united in a single shape, thus blurring the boundaries between the individual objects. The work dates from 1983, a period in which Anthony Cragg worked predominately with recycled objects. At the root of this was his conviction that all materials are equally valuable and interesting.
